Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	GET 082

"Eleven tracks from the vaults of BBC for one of the most important groups in the history of industrial and electronic music. The recordings contained here were made in the BBC studios with in-house producers and engineers rather than the usual self-produced material out of Western Works studios. A minimum of overdubs, sort of midway between studio and live performance. Featuring many of the more well known cuts such as 'Sensoria.' Nice artwork."

Title:	Vibing Up The Senile Man (Part One)
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	GET 088

"2nd album originally released in 1978 on Deptford Fun City. Who would have expected from the band of the quintessential The Image Has Cracked a follow-up as avant-garde abstraction that challenges P.I.L's Second Edition for absolute left-field swing? Vibing Up The Senile Man is closer to free-improvisation and avant-garde jazz (without a punk anthem in sight) and with a dub edge to some of the tracks. Liner notes. Original artwork."

Title:	Song Of The Bailing Man
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	GET 090

"Originally released in 1982 by Rough Trade. Continuing in the spirit of The Art of Walking, this is a fine, occasionally wonderful record that sounds inspired, invigorating, confounding, disturbing. At this juncture Pere Ubu was more art and less rock, a brilliant band breaking every rule of aesthetics. David Thomas with Mayo Thompson (from Texas psychedelic legends Red Krayola), Anton Fier, Tony Maimone and Allen Ravenstine. Original artwork.180 gram HQ vinyl."

The Rounders first electric outing from '67, and the only one to feature their most cosmos-expanding lineup (including playwright Sam Shephard). This is the sound of speed-shooting hillbillies discovering the secrets of life in the sewers below the Peace Eye Bookstore. Loose, psych-out, folkish stumble, a perfect period piece.

First releases to be licensed from the new owner of the ESP catalog, VIA Records in Holland. "First album released in 1966 for this NYC-based band. Godz were part of the Lower East Side scene that produced post-Beat avant-hippie rockers/performance artists like the Fugs and the Holy Modal Rounders, as well as beat performers like Allen Ginsberg. Sounding like a prototype for Half Japanese or the Shaggs, the Godz play as if they discovered their instruments 10 minutes before the tape started rolling."

"During the '60s Sonny Simmons was one of the most promising avant-garde players and his debut as a leader, recorded for ESP-Disk' in the summer of 1966, still sounds advanced and powerful over 30 years later. Performing in a quintet with Barbara Donald (trumpet), John Hicks (piano), Teddy Smith (bass) and Marvin Pattillo (drums), altoist Simmons stretches out on mostly free-form original compositions.

Title:	Why Not
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	GET 1040

"A key figure in the '60s free-jazz movement, Marion Brown was an integral collaborator on two of the most significant avant-garde jazz recordings of the '60s such as John Coltrane's Ascension and Archie Shepp's Firemusic. For this 1968 date the altoist pooled the talents of Norris Jones, Stan Cowell and Coltrane's longstanding sideman Rashied Ali and created this outstanding recording, his 2nd as a leader for ESP-Disk'. The quartet burn through 4 of Brown's avant-garde compositions which are among the most rigorous, lyrical and evocative displays of improvisation mastery of that ground-breaking era.

Title:	Music From The Spheres
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	GET 1043

"Alto saxophonist Sonny Simmons was one of the most talented (if unfortunately lesser known) free jazz musicians of the 1960s. Born in Oakland, CA, Simmons began playing alto sax as a teenager in the early '50s and spent his early years collaborating with Prince Lasha and Charles Mingus. Except for a brief stint in New York in the early '60s, where he recorded with Elvin Jones and Eric Dolphy, Simmons spent most of his life in California where he met and married trumpet player Barbara Donald (featured on this album). His Music From the Spheres, recorded for ESP-Disk in 1966, with Michael Cohen on piano, Juney Booth on bass and Jim Zitro on drums, represents one of the highlights of his career. After almost completely disappearing from the jazz scene for nearly 20 years, Simmons made an amazing comeback in the early '90s with his brilliant Ancient Ritual."

Title:	Prophecy
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP

Catalog #:	GET 1046

"Recorded live at the Cellar Caf� NYC, June 14th 1964, during the same period in which Ayler recorded the earth-shattering Spiritual Unity with Gary Peacock on bass and Sonny Murray on drums. There are distinct similarities on the two recordings in that Ayler's most famous theme Spirits, Wizard, Ghosts are adapted although the energy & variation within the themes is extraordinary. 'The beauty of his music seemed a triumph of instinct over spirit, a heart-rending cry, exuding all the weakness, contradictions, joy of human being -- a kind of desperate god-seeking which necessarily created it's own techniques. Albert Ayler triggered the awakening of a forgotten sensibility, which for many listeners, became unbearable in its implacable lucidity.' (Bernard Lairet, from the original liner notes). Original artwork. 180 gram HQ vinyl."

Title:	Black Beings
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)

"This historical session, recorded in 1973 for ESP-Disk', was tenor saxophonist Frank Lowe's debut as leader and is one of his most electrifying earlier efforts. Black Beings features all original Lowe material, with Joseph Jarman on alto and soprano sax and Leroy Jenkins on violin. Lowe participated in the New York free jazz revolution, first gaining notoriety in the mid-sixties playing with Sun Ra, and later, Alice Coltrane, Rashied Ali, Don Cherry and violinist Billy Bang."

Title:	Marion Brown Quartet
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	GET 1051

"Alto saxophonist Marion Brown, a key member of the avant-garde jazz scene, first arrived in New York in 1965 where he landed his first session playing on John Coltrane's historic Ascension album. By the end of that same year Brown had already recorded this self-titled debut as front man on ESP-Disk, featuring Alan Shorter on trumpet and Ronnie Boykins on bass. His follow up album for ESP (Why Not?) came the following year, along with his critically acclaimed Three For Shepp on Impulse! (a response to Shepp's Four For Trane), which featured one side of his own compositions and one side of Shepp material. Brown is one of the most talented (if lesser known) players of the '60s jazz avant-garde and this historical release secures his place as one of the major voices in jazz."

"Despite her brief musical career (consisting of only two albums released during the mid-sixties), vocal pioneer Patty Waters' managed in that short time to redefine the use of the human voice, while simultaneously exploring the darkest and most anguished corners of the female soul. Her even more daring second album, College Tour, was recorded at one of her live performances shortly thereafter, and features pianists Ran Blake and Burton Greene. Although Waters all but disappeared from the music scene after the late sixties, she was a major influence for many other vocal innovators, including Yoko Ono and Diamanda Galas.

Catalog #:	GET 1056

"Movement Soul is a collection of live recordings from the Civil Rights movement at a peak time: 1963 and 1964. Inspired moments have been chosen from mass meetings, sermons, rallies, demonstrations and individual interviews. Traditionally sung prayers and passionate sayings are intermingled with songs like 'Go Tell it on the Mountain', 'This Little Light of Mine' and 'Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn me 'Round'. Many of the recordings took place at times of heightened emotion, when the community was filled with fear, exhilaration, or defiance. Movement Soul is about a total community: its shared dreams and common demands. It is about the power of a people."

Catalog #:	GET 1079

"Although nearly 40 years have passed since the release of this album for ESP-Disk in 1966, Chicago-born pianist / composer Burton Greene still considers it to be one of his best recordings. All compositions are written by Greene and feature Marion Brown on alto sax, Henry Grimes on bass, Dave Grant and Tom Price on percussion and Frank Smith on tenor sax. Greene made his way to New York City in 1962 just as the free jazz movement was beginning to gain momentum. The following year he and bassist Alan Silva formed the Free Form Improvisation Ensemble, often considered the first spontaneous composition group. Greene has remained committed to music over the past four decades, most recently exploring his Eastern European Jewish roots with various klezmer-jazz projects."

Catalog #:	GET 1084

"Bassist Ronnie Boykins is perhaps best known for his work in Sun Ra's Arkestra, of which he was an intrinsic member for nearly a decade. His inimitable bass style can be heard on all of Ra's most significant recordings, and Ra had a difficult time finding someone to fill Boykins' shoes when he left the Arkestra in 1966. His 1975 self-titled release, featuring all original material, is from his post Ra period and represents one of the last great releases in the ESP-Disk catalogue. Featuring Joe Ferguson on tenor sax and flute, Monty Waters and James Vass on alto and soprano sax, Daoud Haroom on trombone, and Art Lewisand George Avaloz on percussion. Also includes various bells and hand shaken instruments played by all musicians."

Title:	You Used To Think
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	GET 1099

"Recorded at the tail end of 1968, this densely packed album, rooted in blues-laden acid folk, is gradually dominated by a more free-form, jazz-influenced style of vocal innovation which brings the album to its frantic climax. While remaining firmly linked to a lyrical base, Pomerance's primitive wails and shrieks shatter the traditional acid folk mold. Singing in French on 'The Slippery Morning', the versatile vocalist is also responsible for the rhythm guitar and hand drumming heard on the eastern influenced 'We Came Via'. Original artwork. 180 gram HQ vinyl."

"This full-length LP, recorded live at the Old Waldorf in San Francisco on June 13, 1979, is one of the last surviving recordings of one of the greatest punk bands to ever walk the earth. Just ten days after this amazing performance, which along with impassioned versions of some of the band's more notorious songs: 'The American In Me' and 'Corpus Christi', also includes three songs that have never been officially released 'Misery' (AKA 'Finger On The Trigger'), 'Zero Hour' and 'Time To Die', the Avengers were no more. Leaving 20 years of dust to collect on these tapes before they were finally discovered by our treasure hunters here at Get Back.

Format:	LP
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	GET 111

"Simply Saucer was Canada's first proto-punk band. Emerging in 1974 from the industrial city of Hamilton, Ontario, the quartet created a distinct and original sound that was decidedly out of step with the musical climate of the day...edgy rock & roll that was a combination of early '70s punk pre-cursors (Velvet Underground, Stooges, Modern Lovers), krautrock (ala Can, Neu, early Kraftwerk) and UK prog/psyche (Hawkind, Pink Fairies, Syd Barrett)...Although the only material released while the band existed was a two-song 45 rpm single, a 1974 recording session and a 1975 live set were collected together posthumously and released...in late 1989...Now long out of print, this newly re-mastered, expanded reissue is the first legitimate re-release of this material in more than a decade. Hailed as the 'best Canadian album of all time."

In order to cash in on the great popularity of a current TV show, the infamous Posh Boy hooks up with Get Back to remind you about an album that should have been so much easier to forget. Does contain a second-rate version of "Meat House" (immortalized by Negative Trend one year earlier), so one point for that. "No album captured the early Orange County, California punk sound like the Posh Boy label's 1979 historic Beach Blvd compilation. Featuring bands like the Simpletones, The Crowd and Rick L Rick (F-WORD!)."

"Originally released in 1983, this was the first Mot�rhead album not to feature Fast Eddie Clarke on guitar (who left over an argument regarding Lemmy's collaboration with Wendy O. of the Plasmatics) and the first and only album to feature Thin Lizzy guitarist Brian 'Robbo' Robertson, who was recruited immediately to finish the tour. Although Robbo brought more hard rock elements into the mix -- he also was the mastermind behind the beyond-classic 'Shine', which alone is worth the purchase of this LP. But it also includes classic tracks like 'I Got Mine' and 'Rock It'."

"Another little gem rescued by our punk rock task force from the oblivion, U.X.A (acronym for United Experiments Of America) were an essential part of the Posh Boy West Coast punk revolutionary army. Led by the interesting and uncommon vocals of De De Troit, U.X.A. contributed to establishing female vocal punk bands (Avengers, X) in the genre and also gave the typical pop punk sound a chance to expand the visual of new rock.

Catalog #:	GET 122

"The gathering of three former Velvet Underground members at the Bataclan in January 1972 is something that can easily be remembered as one of the most important events in the popular music panorama of the Seventies. The venue was too small for the crowd that milled around attempting to witness what was expected to be a true VU reunion. Far from being that, this gig was however an awesome performance by three of the most controversial icons of the 60s cultural revolution. Here these black angels can be heard performing memorable versions of their best cult tunes like 'Waiting For The Man', 'Black Angel's Death Song' and the closing hymn 'All Tomorrow's Parties."

Recorded in Cambridge UK, 10/24/95. "After a couple of albums on Matador (the interesting and positively reviewed The Infotainment Scam and Middle Class Revolt, for which Karl Burns rejoined the band), sales began to dwindle in the US prompting a switch to Permanent in 1995 with the return of Smith's ex-wife Brix on Cerebral Caustic. This live at The Junction, Cambridge on October 24, 1995, finds a completely revitalized new band which after more than 20 years is still capable of putting out amazing new studio albums as well as strong live performances."

Catalog #:	GET 126

"1982's Zombie Birdhouse sees Iggy stepping out of a swampy contract with Arista that led his fans to believe he had turned into a VH1-like pop star, a sort of caricatured rock shaman. The new album on IRS, produced by Chris Stein of Blondie fame, revitalized the career of a true stage animal who had been on the verge of losing his knack and who, despite some lack of focus in this new path, reconciled with his fans with this genuine punk-new wave record. This reissue also includes 'Pain and Suffering', a bonus track from the recording sessions which was not used in the original album but is known for being part of the Canadian fantasy feature Rock And Rule together with tracks by Blondie and Lou Reed."

Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	GET 127

"Recorded live on October 28, 1982 in Toronto during the Zombie Birdhouse Tour, this album reports about the good form Iggy was in at this moment of his career. Still recovering from a polishing treatment by Arista, Iggy performs strongly enough to sweep away all doubts about his hard rock reputation that Zombie Birdhouse might have left in his fans' ears. The bootleg sound quality does not prevent an enjoyable listen and actually confirms the band and its frontman's verve."

Catalog #:	GET 135LP

"Former Ultravox vocalist and frontman who left the act after three incredible albums, John Foxx went on to a solo career releasing his first self-produced album -- the electronic Metamatic (1980) -- in which synthetic atmospheres lulled his metallic futuristic voice. Foxx's second album The Garden (1981) reveals a true genius of the so-called New Wave, already set for the musical revolution of the early eighties. Unlike his solo debut, The Garden is not a pure act of experimentation but tries to collect many influences such as The Velvet Underground, Roxy Music and various apparently incommensurable legacies, tied together by Foxx's majestic lyricism and voice."

"One of the most underrated bands of the British punk period, in 1977 Peter Perrett's Only Ones seemed headed on the fast track to being the 'next big thing' especially given the critical acclaim surrounding the release of their classic 'Another Girl, Another Planet' single, also featured on their self-titled album. After the release of two more albums, Even Serpents Shine and Baby's Got A Gun, the band slowly faded into obscurity, but like many other great bands of the period, they quickly earned cult status and their influence lives on to this day.

"Eric Dolphy was a true original with his own distinctive styles on alto, flute and bass clarinet and these are classic recordings in any form and constitute some of the most brilliant work of the early '60s avant-garde. Iron Man is every bit essential and it also clearly anticipates the detailed, abstract sound paintings of Dolphy's masterwork Out to Lunch. In large part the program is weighted here toward Dolphy's originals: 'Iron Man', 'Burning Spear' and the shorter 'Mandrake' all have outside themes, full of Dolphy's trademark wide interval leaps and playful sense of dissonance. Featuring vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, bassist Richard Davis, trumpeter Woody Shaw, flutist Prince Lasha, altoist Sonny Simmons and soprano sax player Clifford Jordan.

Monk rarely played with so large a group, making this concert a rare historical event, and this album an important historical document in understanding this side of Monk's sound. All of the music heard on this double LP is original Monk material (some of which were written in the early Forties) including: 'We See', 'Epistrophy', 'Oska-T', 'Evidence', 'Blue Monk', and 'Epistrophy' --as well as the classic Monk ballad 'Ruby My Dear'."

"Jazz drummer Max Roach is one of the instrument's greatest masters. He revolutionized the way the drum is used, and his profound impact can still be felt in jazz today. A major voice in the bebop revolution, it is Roach's drumming that punctuated many of the genre-shaping recordings from the late forties and early fifties, including Miles Davis' historic The Birth Of The Cool. It was also around this same time that he and Charles Mingus started up their own label, Debut Records. These live recordings (from 1960-1961) come from a time in which Roach had become a vocal advocate of the Civil Rights movement, increasingly mixing music and politics, perhaps best illustrated on his classic 1960 We Insist! Freedom Now Suite."

Catalog #:	GET 2022

"The high Priestess Of Soul pays tribute to the queen herself, Billie Holiday. Despite the decades that divide the two singers and the fact that Holiday was from the North (Philadelphia) and Simone was from the South (North Carolina), the two pioneering vocalists are united not by their music, but by the fact that both women put their musical careers on the line to sing about racism and the atrocities being committed against black Americans. Holiday's harrowing 'Strange Fruit' (included here) and Nina Simone's 'Mississippi Goddamn!' are parallel protest songs, although Lady Day was singing hers decades before the Civil Rights Movement. These eight amazing Billie Holiday classics, including 'Tell Me More & Then Some', 'This Year's Kisses' and 'Give Me A Pigfoot And A Bottle Of Beer' are given the full Nina Simone treatment -- a rare opportunity to enjoy two legends in one sitting."

"Skeptically criticized in his early years for his tremendously innovative style which was simply way ahead of its time, Thelonious Monk was undisputedly acclaimed in the Sixties, when his vision of jazz suited much better the stylish (r)evolution in art, music, literature and cinema of that period. The Prophet is an album that clearly marks Monk's ability to dissect, turn upside down, reinvent and serve on a silver platter practically every single jazz standard. This album, originally released in 1968, gives the above mentioned treatment to classics like 'Round Midnight,' and 'Smoke Gets in Your Eyes' among others."

"One of the most important figures in American jazz, Charles Mingus spent most of his career at the forefront of the avant-garde. This album, recorded in 1972 in Berlin with a superlative Cat Anderson on trumpet during a period of extensive touring, was made during a very productive time in Mingus' life. He had spent the previous year teaching music and his autobiography Beneath The Underdog had just been published. In 1972, he also re-signed with Columbia Records and his music was now performed frequently by ballet companies, including Alvin Ailey, who choreographed 'The Mingus Dances' during a 1972 collaboration with the Robert Joffrey Ballet Company. Mingus continued playing music and touring until 1977 when he was diagnosed with a rare nerve disease, Amyotropic Lateral Sclerosis. He died two years later, in 1979, at the age of 56.

This unique album comes from a prolific period in Evans' career and gives fans a glimpse at two significant Evans-led trios.

He then recorded 'The Girl from Ipanema' with Jobim, Jo�o Gilberto and Astrud Gilberto and not only did it win him another Grammy, but it also became one of the best-known Latin jazz pieces ever recorded. Side A of this album was recorded shortly after Getz's return to the USA, at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1961, and features Steve Kuhn on piano, Scott LaFaro on bass, and Roy Haynes on drums, while side B was recorded live in Berlin in 1966, and features Gary Burton on vibraphone, Chuck Israel on bass and Roy Haynes on drums."

"Charles Mingus was not only a bass virtuoso, but probably the greatest bass playing leader the world has ever known. Although strongly influenced by Duke Ellington in his early years, he was a true pioneer in jazz, and by the '50s, was at the avant-garde of the jazz world where he was soon playing alongside Charlie Parker, Bud Powell and Duke Ellington himself. By 1964, when this live album was recorded, Mingus was at his most creative and prolific, releasing over 30 albums over the course of the decade. Soon after the release of his sprawling masterpiece, The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady, called 'one of the greatest achievements in orchestration by any composer in jazz history,' Mingus put together one of his most influential ensembles, a sextet featuring Johnny Coles, Eric Dolphy, Clifford Jordan, Jaki Byard and Danny Richmond and undertook an extensive European tour. This tour, although marked by great live recordings such as this one in Stuttgart, was also unfortunately marred by tragedy as Coles fell ill and Dolphy died while in Berlin just two months later."

Most musicians involved with this crying anarchy could get no bookings beyond the New York loft set. The French lovers of the avant-garde embraced this African-American scene wholly.

"John Cage is perhaps the most influential and controversial American composer of the 20 th century avant-garde, with a body of work spanning 5 decades. His 1974 Etudes Australes were based on notes derived from star charts of the Australian sky. The 32 etudes have no specified tempo or time and it is left up to the performer to decide the duration of each note. Each etude also requires that certain keys are held down throughout the piece (generally accomplished by using a rubber wedge) creating halos of sound that alter the surrounding notes."

"American avant-garde composer Alvin Lucier is well-known for his pioneering exploration of the physical properties of sound including the use of brainwaves to generate music. This LP features two of Lucier's groundbreaking early works. Lucier himself described his Bird and Person Dyning project in the following way: I got this electronic bird in the mail, a Christmas tree ornament, and you simply plugged it in, and it made this birdcall... I had this idea to put binaural mikes in my ears and to head that bird and to move my head and pan the sound of the bird around in space. I had a mike in one ear and one in the other and I could make the stereo image by moving my head, so I started the birdcall and I put the amplifier on, and I started to get feedback and I discovered that these beautiful interference patterns were occurring between the sound to the birdcall and the strands of feedback. The flipside ('The Duke of New York') deals with the power of entertainers in our society and the hypothesis that their voices are present on different levels in our memory."

"Recorded at the Festival Of The Two Worlds in Spoleto, Italy on July 8 1967, this spoken word album by the famed beat generation multi-media artist captures Ginsberg's period as the undisputed master of the hippie movement. This album also documents the liaison between Ginsberg and the founder of the Italian 'hermetic' school of poetry, Giuseppe Ungaretti, whose poems are here translated and declaimed by the American guru. Ginsberg, known for his bizarre live acts and sharp criticism of the western world through farce and sarcasm, was here listened to carefully by the authorities and then charged with accusations of violating the Italian penal code. His response was to show up at the police station carrying a bouquet of flowers and gesturing a mudra over the police officer's head to expel demons."

"For a long time a hard to find collectable record, this historical spoken word album by LSD prophet Timothy Leary has now finally been reissued. Leary's raps and monologues, structured on an intersections of famous tunes of the time (the album was originally released in 1970 on Douglas) might sound outdated today and too linked to a specific weltanschauung that was the basis of Leary's modern age philosophy. But this is probably the reason why You Can Be Anyone This Time Around retains its interest in current times: it's the original, uncut, uncensored vision of a sharp thinker who has been often easily scorned for his extreme takes on drug use. Musically speaking, side B 'Live and Let Live,' offers an unforgettable jam session in the background with Stephen Stills, John Sebastian, Buddy Miles and Jimi Hendrix on bass."

This is a series of recordings compiled from a winter's worth of unreleased sessions recorded in hashish blur. Twink's liner notes indicate that he never thought twice about them, but engineer Julian Briggs recently contacted him and reminded him of these events, and now extracts can be heard for the first time. The results are some of the most extreme & outside music that has been released in association with Mr. Twink's, looping noise jamdom and excess, plus some psychedelic foppery in a Tolkien-inspired mode. It's hard to believe Twink really "forgot" about this stuff considering the discography of junk he's remembered to reissue, and you might wonder if a bit more than mixing & mastering occurred in 1999. But either way, this is one of the guy's all time highlights in the universe of recorded sound, so make you you say "thanks" the next time you attempt to stick a flower in one of his ears.

The subsequent fortunes of its members in groups like Journey and the Steve Miller Band have only added to the phenomenon. Frumious Bandersnatch were amongst the second wave of the 1960s San Francisco rock renaissance, but they had no allegiance to folk or jazz or any of the other influences that shaped the major players such as the Dead or the Airplane. Instead the group came together in the culturally-arid environs of Contra Costa County in the East Bay, over the hill from politicized Berkeley and working-class Oakland, and a world away from cosmopolitan San Francisco itself."

After their self titled debut album and A Web Of Sounds, with third album Future (1967), the Seeds shifted towards a more psychedelic and obscure vision that may have alienated them from their garage pop audience but that gave the band a chance to align themselves with a new sound though without abandoning their original inventive. Strongly inspired by Sgt Pepper's ambience, Future seems less pop oriented and less appealing to a mass audience. A pearl for insiders that still sounds fresh, honest and highly inspired.

"Recorded at the end of 1971, this was the last album by this legendary Peruvian band. Compared to their previous recordings, the Latin and Andean folk influences were much stronger here and the lyrics were more politicized, painting a picture of the social and economic turmoil of Peru in the 1970s. Incredibly, due to workers' strikes at their label, the master tapes were lost until 1996 when they were finally found labelled as 'Andean folkloric music.' Featuring the flute and tenor sax playing of Jean Pierre Magnet, the only member who would go on to be a professional musician (as a world famous sax player). Now reissued for the first time ever on vinyl!"
